0028 A family should be complete and organized.
Yan Li couldn't understand who would dare to touch the Princess's people.
Especially now.
are you crazy?
Not only was he not insane, but Chen Zhong went to great lengths to capture him.
First of all, the "Swallow in pairs" formation cannot be used.
Qin Ying's disguise was passable, but it didn't stand up to scrutiny.
If there is a lack of supporting information regarding aspects such as voice, movements, and address, one will inevitably give oneself away.
Martial artists are extremely perceptive.
Zhao Jing repeatedly exposed himself with the Thousand Illusion Pearl.
Yan Shuangxing and Leng Huazhu quickly discovered the problem.
If disguise were really that useful, chaos would have ensued long ago.
Moreover, Yan Li is a seasoned veteran, the head of the guards at the princess's residence.
Once the other party notices something amiss, the entire plan will collapse.
Moreover, a coup just took place this morning, and the warriors of Yujing are on high alert.
How did you manage to lure him into the trap?
Dreams are beautiful, but reality is harsh.
The task is extremely difficult.
Therefore, Chen Zhong suggested that Wang Tianyi, played by Ye Ling, should go instead.
Wang Tianyi was merely Yan Shuangxing's colleague, so his deception was relatively minor.
Zhao Jing naturally wouldn't refuse:
"Chen Zhong, you are my steward."
"I trust you, so you shall take command."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Bao'er is the shield, and Chen Zhong is the general.
If Zhao Jing ascends the throne, he will be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
This requires both courage and strategy.
Therefore, the command of the battlefield still rests with Chen Zhong.
Chen Zhong accepted the order and began to act swiftly and decisively.
"Ye Ling, you'll be playing the role of Wang Tianyi. Go find Yan Li."
"And me?"
Qin Ying was dissatisfied.
Chen Zhong smiled faintly:
"You disguise yourself as the seriously injured Yan Shuangxing as bait."
"what?"
Chen Zhong smiled but remained silent.
This is imitating His Highness's "using a corpse to kill".
Zhao Jing used this move to wipe out the Yuwen family's guards, so Chen Zhong naturally had to learn from it.
Qin Ying was puzzled, but Chen Zhong had no intention of explaining. He simply sized up Ye Ling and frowned.
"The body shape and appearance are right, but the voice is not."
"Martial artists have excellent memories. If Yan Li recognizes Wang Tianyi, he will surely be exposed."
"The voice should be hoarse, showing signs of injury."
"Make some more peony perfume; Wang Tianyi is particularly fond of growing flowers."
Ye Ling always had a smile on her face, as if to say:
"Hello, sir/madam!"
He was born a servant, but due to his extraordinary talent, he was recruited by the Crown Prince and gradually became a Xiantian (a high-level cultivator).
In terms of martial arts talent, he ranks among the best.
Ye Ling, still smiling, responded to Chen Zhong's suggestion:
"Lord Chen, that's easy."
The next second, Ye Ling pulled out a dagger and slit her own throat.
hiss!
He precisely cut open his own trachea, then covered the wound, using his internal energy to stop the bleeding, his voice hoarse:
"My lord, now there's no flaw."
"It's more like the result of a death match."
What a hero!
Chen Zhong's eyes narrowed.
He originally looked down on these retainers.
Upon first entering the Innate Realm, one's combat strength is weak.
Any one of the Eastern Palace Immortals could take on three opponents at once.
Everyone has their own flaws.
Chen Zhong values loyalty above all else, and therefore places great importance on hierarchy.
I am His Highness Tiegan, and my status is even higher.
You are merely retainers, with an even lower status.
Chen Zhong was more protective of the hierarchical system than Zhao Jing. When he saw Wei Kai being disloyal to Marquis Xuanwu, he cursed him as a treacherous servant.
But he realized he was wrong.
A group of true assassins, even if they are not very strong, are enough to shock the world.
They are also His Highness's good guards.
He looks down on people because of his own arrogance.
Chen Zhong felt apologetic:
"Ye Ling, I'll remember you."
"Make your breathing a little more disordered, and do as I say."
Ye Ling accepted the order and pretended to be in a disheveled state.
Everything is ready.
Chen Zhong then led his team through a secret passage into the inner city.
Yujing is divided into inner and outer districts, totaling sixteen districts.
Anmin District was located in the outer city, where security was somewhat lax, which is why Du Jin and Wei Kai were able to be killed.
The princess's residence was located in the inner city, where the city walls were towering.
If we cannot get through the pass, we will not be able to reach the Princess's residence, let alone capture Yan Li.
A citywide curfew is in effect; a direct assault is wishful thinking.
The inner city was guarded by a grandmaster, whose powerful aura swept away the entire army.
The good news is that there is a secret escape route in the East Palace.
The bad news is that the secret was leaked in the morning, and the Imperial Guards intercepted it.
Fortunately, Tu Su remembered another secret passage, which was specifically for use by hidden agents and was different from the secret passage in the East Palace.
After careful consideration, Zhao Jing realized that this was not a game scenario, so he was not afraid of the other party's precognitive abilities.
Chen Zhong then sent people to scout ahead and confirm that it was safe before the plan could proceed.
Even so, his palms were already covered in fine beads of sweat.
One wrong step and the whole game is lost.
He can't afford to lose.
We must win.
Zhao Jing had originally asked Chen Zhong if he wanted to go home.
Chen Zhong shook his head and refused:
"Your Highness, such an important matter cannot be concerned with family matters."
"With Constable Leng and Escort Lin here, I have absolutely no worries."
Chen Zhong received his father's teachings from a young age to make great contributions and do great things.
Whether he can pass the test is now.
"Operation begins!"
……
Yujing, Inner City, Princess's Residence
Here you'll find not only modern kerosene lamps, but also spotlights crafted from spirit stones.
The lights were on full display, as bright as day.
People nearby could even see the array formations of the mansion slowly operating when they looked up.
A murderous aura permeated the air.
A golden phoenix circled overhead, making the mansion as solid as a rock.
With the blessing of the array spirit, enemies can be defended from a thousand miles away.
Even a grandmaster would find it difficult to conquer.
The fact that the Crown Prince's residence has survived to this day is also thanks to the array formations built over many years.
The princess's guards were all elite soldiers, and even after their glorious victory, they remained vigilant.
The eldest princess is not a puppet.
She was originally a famous general who once led the Xuanwu Army to aid Yanzhou, defeating the Xuanjia Army of Da Xuan and becoming famous in one battle.
Later, the eldest princess also attempted a combined land and sea offensive to counterattack Yunzhou.
If Emperor Hongjing had not issued three imperial edicts to stop the army's northern expedition, the outcome would have been uncertain.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the three major military groups in the northern border to collectively support the Princess.
As soon as Ye Ling appeared, the guards at the princess's residence noticed her and their eyes narrowed.
A mountain-like pressure instantly weighed on Ye Ling, making it almost impossible for him to move forward.
Witness!
Ye Ling was nearly suffocating.
Is this the power of a field army combined with a military formation?
so horrible.
It's not that the individual gatekeepers are particularly strong, but rather that the entire princess's residence has become a unified whole.
The gatekeeper restrained Ye Ling and then shouted:
"Halt! State your name!"
"The Yuwen family, Wang Tianyi!"
"I request an audience with Yan Li, Lord Yan. I have urgent news to report!"
Ye Ling was covered in mud and had a hoarse voice, clearly indicating that he had an urgent report to deliver.
With the Yuwen family's token in his hand, the gatekeeper finally released the pressure on him.
If she were even a moment slower, Ye Ling worried that she would collapse to the ground and reveal her weakness.
The guard relaxed his pressure and wouldn't allow him to approach, saying he would report it to the commander.
After all, the two families are about to be united by marriage, and they will inevitably run into each other in the future.
Yan Li happened to be on his day off and soon came out of the mansion with a puzzled expression on his face.
Wang Tianyi, he knew.
It's not a good thing.
Yan Li also warned his nephew not to play with them.
I never expected him to come looking for me.
Wang Tianyi held the knife and wept:
"Uncle Yan, something's happened."
"We followed the young master to annihilate the remnants of the Eastern Palace, but were ambushed by Chen Zhong."
"We fought desperately, but unexpectedly, both of them were seriously injured and I'm afraid they won't survive the night."
What!
Yan Li's pupils constricted sharply, he grabbed Ye Ling, and roared like thunder:
"Don't try to fool me!"
"With dual-class abilities, who can harm him?"
The first step in fraud is to break down the victim's psychological defenses.
Yan Li had no children, so he regarded the two Yans as his own.
Now that my only son is in trouble, what can I do?
Ye Ling gave a bitter laugh:
"Uncle Yan, the guards of the Eastern Palace fought back in their dying moments, and we suffered heavy losses."
"Shuangxing is still being treated."
"We fear there may be something we cannot bear to say, so we have come to deliver this message..."
Ye Ling had piqued everyone's interest, then revealed a troubled expression:
"But it's Uncle Yan's duty."
"or……"
"Bullshit! Lead the way right now!"
"Lord Baili, I'm going out for a while."
The steward of the princess's residence immediately granted permission:
Go quickly and return quickly.
"If you need any elixirs, you can come to my residence to obtain them."
"Thank you very much, Lord Baili!"
Yan Li was extremely anxious. Seeing that Ye Ling was injured, he immediately picked up his sword and ran away.
Ye Ling added on the way:
"Uncle Yan, we originally intended to take the secret passage back to the inner city."
"Who would have thought that the two lines couldn't hold together?"
"The young master has gone to seek help; we are waiting in the secret passage."
If Yan Li were calm enough, he would definitely be able to spot the flaw.
Concern can lead to confusion.
A short while later, he rushed into the secret passage and saw someone healing their wounds. He strode over to them.
"Double line!"
But instead of a response from his loved ones, he was met with a sniper rifle fitted with a silencer.
Wang Younian was skilled with firearms, so he aimed from behind and locked onto Yan Li's heart.
boom!
At the same time the gunshot rang out, Ye Ling thrust her dagger toward Yan Li's neck.
The ambushing group of innate beings swarmed forward.
Yanli is a long-established Xiantian brand.
Even in a group fight, he would have a chance to fight his way out.
But the secret passage was still filled with the scent of medicine.
This time it was replaced by a gentle, melancholic breeze.
The effect is less effective, but it is better at concealing itself.
Sniper rifles, sleeping pills, the combined attack of several innate masters, and Chen Zhong's Golden Bell Shield delivered the decisive blow.
Yan Li had no power to resist and his Qi Sea was destroyed before he was taken to the Longmen Warehouse.
"Uncle Yan, how have you been?"
Yan Li suddenly widened his eyes, revealing an expression of disbelief.
